Dear Rocky Mount Rotarians,
I want to be the first to thank everyone who made the Reverse Raffle a success. We don't have the exact amount raised yet, but we estimate that it is over $10,000. Jason Turner and the Fundraising Team did a great job organizing and planning the event. Danny Perdue and all of the top salespeople are to be congratulations. Lisa Schenk did a great job as treasurer for this event. It was wonderful to see new members stepping into leadership roles for this event such as Mark Newbill.
We have a new web site for our club: www.rockymountrotary.blogspot.com . I am so proud to be a member of a club that comes together to help three great charities in Franklin County. The money will help the Free Clinic, Rising Opportunities (Didlake), and Helping Hands.
Please keep in mind ideas for our major fundraiser this year. The two main ideas are the homeless shelter with STEP and the golf driving range. I've had a few members express a desire for a project similar to the playgrounds which would visible to the whole community. Our goal is to decide on that project in the next few weeks.
Yours in Rotary
Walter Hughes
